Description
Gill Ribbed Larva
The Gill Ribbed Larva is a type of fly pattern commonly used in fly fishing. It is often used to imitate the larval stage of aquatic insects such as caddisflies and midges.
The fly pattern typically features a segmented body made of ribbing material such as wire or tinsel, with a thorax made of dubbing material and a bead head to help the fly sink. The fly may also feature some additional materials to simulate legs or other body parts of the insect.
The name “Gill Ribbed” comes from the ribbing on the body of the fly, which is intended to represent the gills or respiratory structures of the insect larva. This type of fly is effective when fished in slow-moving or still water, where it can be presented close to the bottom of the water column where the larvae of aquatic insects often reside.
Usually available in the following hook sizes: 14 | 16 | 18 | 20
